## Resource

Portland’s public pools are rolling back their supervision rule—kids under ten now need an adult guardian, down from the original requirement for ages eleven and under. The Oregon Health Authority softened its stance in June, turning the rule into a recommendation rather than a mandate. Parents and teens alike celebrated the change, calling it a win for summer freedom and independence. Lifeguards remain on duty for safety, but can’t substitute for a parent who knows their child’s swimming ability. The swim test for deep end access is still in place. Pools reopen June 18th—summer’s back on track. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
